3 years ago my beautiful girlfriend had to go through cancer treatment and it was hard watching her go through chemotherapy, losing her hair and basically going to hell and back. But she got through it and was cured. Now she has breast cancer and I have to watch her go through it again. Thankfully it’s not terminal and the cancer team expect to treat through surgery and chemotherapy/radiotherapy. But it’s going to be a hard long road again.
Hi Andy1009
Welcome to the online community, I'm Daisy53 one of the Community Champion on the community. I'm sorry to hear that your girlfriend has been diagnosed with breast cancer after already going through cancer treatment. You might like to also join the Breast Cancer Forum where you will get support from others who have been through breast cancer. Here's the link to that forum: Breast cancer forum . It might be a good idea to encourage her to join the breast cancer forum also for support if she finds she is struggling.
Wishing you and your girlfriend the best of luck with everything.
Best wishes
Daisy53
